1
Season the Steak
Pat the filet mignon dry with paper towels. Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly on both sides of the steaks.
2
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3
Cook the Filet Mignon
Add the seasoned filet mignon to the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your desired doneness.
4
Rest the Steak
Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing.

5
Trim the Asparagus
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Cut into 2-inch pieces.
6
Prepare the Carrots and Bell Pepper
Peel the carrots and slice them into thin rounds. Cut the bell pepper into strips. Mince the garlic.
7
Sauté the Vegetables
In the same skillet used for the steak, add butter and then add garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add asparagus, carrots, and bell pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes until tender but still crisp, stirring occasionally.
